Yes, the Defaults package allows you to do this.
Problem
Is it possible to change the default values of formal parameters in an R function at runtime? Let's assume, we have the function ``` f <- function(x=1) { ... } ``` can I somehow change the default value of x from 1 to, say, 2? Thanks in advance, Sven
